What is Anaerobic Digestion?

Anaerobic Digestion (AD) is a natural process where plant and animal materials (biomass) are broken down by micro-organisms in the absence of air. Lion Containers (Biomass) Ltd can convert containers into enclosures for this process. The container is modified to house the process plant which aids the liquefaction, acid formation and methane formation required to create biogas. The AD process can be explained as follows:

Biomass is put inside a sealed tank or digester.

Naturally occurring micro-organisms digest the biomass which releases methane rich gas (biogas) that can be used to generate renewable heat and power. This helps to cut fossil fuel use and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

The remaining material (digestate) is rich in nutrients and can be used as fertiliser.

Many forms of biomass are suitable for AD including food waste, slurry and manure, as well as crops and crop residues. The products of AD are referred to as biogas and digestate. Biogas can be combusted to provide heat, electricity or both.
